"It was a pleasure working with David. He is knowledgeable, thorough, focused and very insightful. His always positive attitude was welcome and inspiring." - Adam W.
I first came to Denver in 1969. I grew up in Aurora in the 70’s and attended college at the University of Colorado in Boulder where I earned degrees in Genetic Engineering and Applied Physics. During this time I was also an internationally ranked martial arts competitor and hold several advanced black belts. Post-college, I spent some time working for the Defense Department and then in local and federal law enforcement before settling in the tech industry where I spent over 25 years.
I began by starting and selling a successful software company. I rounded off my time in tech as a C-Level executive at a couple of global corporations and then finally a couple of start ups. These were wonderful experiences, but at the core there was always something missing. I didn’t feel like the work I was doing was directly contributing to my community.
After some soul searching and extensive discussions with my wife, I decided to make a career move to a place where I would be able to directly help people and champion the communities in which we live. In my mind, being a Realtor is the best way for me to accomplish this. As a realtor, I am committed to helping my clients in every possible way, being the local knowledge expert for the area, and helping find just the right home, and/or just the right buyer. Colorado mountain living presents a unique set of challenges for homeowners and we pride ourselves on being the market experts in our communities.
Being a former professional athlete, my wife and I are very active and avid outdoors people all year round, and we are long time residents of Colorado’s mountain communities. We currently split our time between Keystone and Evergreen West, so we are perfectly comfortable helping you with your real estate needs in the foothills of Denver and Summit County.

David brings excellent knowledge of Summit County, and is a great partner to work with! He showed us great properties, and helped us figure out what was right for us. Thanks David!

Working with David was fantastic. With his help we just closed on our first investment property in a county we don't live in, and I am certain we couldn't have done it without him. David has a wealth of knowledge around property in Summit County and on top of that he is very responsive, helpful, and kind.

Wow! Super impressed with David and his wife! He started searching day 1 and modified each time added a new need on our list. He was always available for us and found and bought our home in under 3 months!

David consistently brought a positive attitude throughout my home buying experience while also providing honest evaluation of each property we visited. His knowledge of the real estate market in Summit County was very beneficial when evaluating neighborhoods/location, the rate at which properties would be on the market and unique perspective of what aspects to consider as a home owner in the Rocky Mountains. David exceeded my expectations by showing me homes virtually while I was busy in the city. This resulted in beating out another bidder and eventually closing on the mountain home I’ve always wanted!

As a first-time home buyer, David brought so much knowledge and comfort to the process. He took the time to understand what we were looking for in a home and never hesitated to answer our questions. I felt like I must have called him a million times with questions and he always answered them with warmth and patience. I appreciated that in this seller's market, David was available to show us homes very quickly as they came onto the market. He gave us great advice and ultimately helped get our offer accepted on a home we loved. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend David to any home buyer and would definitely work with him again if/when we decide to move!

We were referred to David from a trusted friend and agent in Denver to help with our cabin search. David exceeded expectations! He was very knowledgeable about a wide range of areas and helped with all of our questions about general mountain cabin ownership and what to look for. When we did find a place, David helped us write an offer that got accepted for a highly competitive property and our offer wasn’t even the highest dollar offer in the mix. Can’t recommend David enough, thank you!

David was a pleasure to work with. He helped us through every step of the process and always had our best interest at heart. He even drove almost 2 hours to meet us and spent the day showing us around. I highly recommend him!!

I'm quite sure this review opportunity doesn't allow the number of characters that I would need to even begin to articulate what a phenomenal partner David was, as we packed up, restored, repaired and otherwise prepared the sale of my father's beloved mountain home!! We simply would not have been able to face the many challenges we faced without him in our corner. My sister and I, having lost our mother and brother, and trying to remain focused on supporting our father, were literally able to sleep better at night, knowing David was "handling things"! It was a never ending stream of, David is meeting with the clean up crew; David is finding an electrician; David has arranged for this inspection or that; David is helping pack / donate old tools; David's cleaning up trash around the property; David is wiping down cabinets; and on and on and on it goes!! David could have charged 3x what he did and still would have been underpaid. From the deepest parts of our family's hearts and with immeasurable gratitude, thank you David!! You TRULY are one in a million!!!

This was my second purchase using 8z and I continue to be impressed with the level of service and professionalism of everyone on the team. David was fantastic! He patiently answered all of my questions -- and I had a lot of them - and gave me the tools I needed to find the right property. I was really pleased with the process. I highly recommend David and would gladly work with him again.
